Nature

The Chamery vineyard consists of 25% Chardonnay, 47% Pinot Meunier and 28% Pinot Noir. Chamery has around 200 hectares of vineyards in total, while the terroir is criss-crossed by walking trails. A hiking route organised by the Parc also follows part of the GRP de l’Ardre (GR 142) over 11 km.

Below Place du Jard lies the Jardin des sens, with irises, roses, tulips and a pergola shaped like a nun’s wimple. The garden also includes a play area. It was created in 2019 as a meeting place for families and visitors.
